Can Nick Saban, or anyone else in the SEC, get revenge on former Florida coach Urban Meyer in 2015?
According to the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook, one of the most respected sports books in the world, it isn’t likely.

Westgate released national championship odds Tuesday morning. As you can see, the Ohio State Buckeyes (at 4-1) are favored to repeat as College Football Playoff winners. (If Meyer could just find a decent quarterback to play, right?)
Just two SEC teams made the list — Alabama (7-1) and Auburn (15-1).
Another site lists Georgia and LSU at 28-1, Ole Miss at 35-1 and Arkansas at 38-1 as the other SEC teams most likely to win the national championship this season.
Of the top 11 teams listed by Westgate, three play in the Big 12, two play in the SEC, two play in the Big Ten, two play in the Pac-12, one is Independent (Notre Dame) and one plays in the ACC.
Is this the year the SEC reclaims the title after a two-season absence? And if so, will it have to be the Iron Bowl winner to wrest the title back from the Big Ten?
